“The number of single-family home sales in April was only four less than April 2024, so just about even with last year,” said Cassidy Norton, associate publisher and Media Relations director of The Warren Group. “Hopefully that’s an indication that the number of homes on the market is increasing and easing the inventory crunch somewhat.”
